The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~November 3, 2026 (estimated)

Freshworks Inc.'s trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 15.6% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 25.9%. Where it stands out: change in share count of -5.5% ranks 9 of 163 application software companies we cover.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$6.8 per share in the base case (~$5.7–$8.3 across growth scenarios) — model values under stated assumptions, not a price target.

Current signal Revenue growth decelerating: TTM revenue growth slowed to 15.6% (-0.3pp vs the prior quarter), the 6th consecutive quarterly slowdown.

Assembled from SEC-filed figures — the full workings are on this page and in our methodology. Observations, not recommendations.

Strengths

  • Fast growth. Revenue grew 15.6% over the last 12 months, against a median of 12.0% for application software companies we cover.
  • Margins widening. Operating margin is up 13.8 points on a year ago.
  • Strong cash generation. 25.9% of revenue turned into free cash flow, against a median of 15.2% for application software companies we cover.
  • Shrinking share count. Diluted shares fell 5.5% in a year, so each share owns more of the business.
  • Net cash. Cash exceeds long-term debt by $0.5bn.

Things to watch

  • Results due soon. Results are expected around 4 November; the share price can move sharply on the day.
  • Priced above our value. The share price of $14.21 is 52% above our value per share of $7.
  • Volatile shares. Over the past year the shares showed annualised volatility of 50% and a beta of 0.6 against the S&P 500.
  • Heavily shorted. 12.7% of the shares available to trade are sold short (4.0 days of average volume to cover).

What the price is pricing in

The share price asks for more than 100% a year of cash-flow growth in our model.

  • Last 12 months15.6%
  • 3 years a year18.4%
  • 5 years a year19.5%

Our cash-flow model with every input fixed except growth over the next five years, solved for the growth at which the model value equals the share price ($14.18, Nov 3, 2026). Cash-flow growth then fades to 2.5% a year; discount rate 8.5%. Delivered figures are revenue growth from SEC filings.

How we got here: a discounted-cash-flow model of Freshworks Inc.'s free cash flow after stock-based pay with after-tax interest added back ($955,305, FY2026 Q2 TTM), growing 15% and 16% in the next two years (forecasts, guidance and its record), then back to 17% by year five, and fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%. Lower and higher growth cases span ~$5.7–~$8.3 ; that spread sets a 15% margin before we rate Buy or Sell.

Produced by Fundamentalytics' automated valuation model on November 3, 2026, using delayed market prices. Rating meanings, methodology and conflicts: recommendations disclosure and research disclaimer. General research, not personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances. Prices can fall as well as rise.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of Freshworks Inc.'s free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $955,305, FY2026 Q2 TTM, with after-tax interest added back): growth for five years as below (the first two years from forecasts, guidance and the company's record), fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%, then cash added and debt and other claims subtracted. These are model values under stated assumptions, not price targets or recommendations.

Valuation models

We value Freshworks Inc. as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 10.1%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.15 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Value per share by model
Model Value per share In the combined value?
Cash-flow model (DCF) Free cash flow to the firm (after stock pay, with after-tax interest added back), grown then faded to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5% as the firm rate, less debt and other claims. ~$6.8 ~$5.7–$8.3 Primary model, counts double
Forward price-to-earnings vs peers Next year's consensus earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) forward price-to-earnings. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$11 ~$9.5–$19 Included
Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. — Does not apply: the model gives no positive value
Justified price-to-book Book value times (return on equity - growth) / (cost of equity - growth): steady-state returns. — Does not apply: return on equity is not positive
Combined value Weighted average of the models that apply: the primary model (cash-flow model (dcf)) counts double. Models more than 5x or less than 0.2x the share price, or more than 3x away from the other models' median, are left out. ~$8.4 ~$6.8–$11 2 models

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one.

Options strategies

All options ideas

How Freshworks Inc.’s listed options are priced, and three ways to use them that follow from our valuation. Quotes are delayed, read November 3, 2026. Check the live chain at your broker before trading.

Cash-secured put

Not offered: rated Sell.

We suggest selling a put only on well-rated companies, at a strike where the price you would pay if assigned (strike less premium) is at or below our fair value.

Covered call

Not offered: no liquid call at or above our price target — the model says the upside is worth more than any listed strike.

For holders: sell a call at a strike at or above our fair value, so the shares are only sold at a price the model calls full value.

Collar

Not offered: no liquid put and call pair for the same expiry.

For holders of a stock trading at or above our fair value: buy a put for a floor and sell a call to pay for it.

General research, not personal advice. Options can lose you more than you expect and are not suitable for everyone: put sellers can be made to buy shares that keep falling, call sellers give up gains above the strike, and results or news can move prices sharply. Chances shown are approximations from each option’s delta. Spreads, fees and early assignment are not modelled.
